Destiny Remake vs Destiny 2

The sequel should be a remake of Destiny

The sequel should be Destiny 2

I'm not buying it either way...

I post this question to the community. Given the lackluster story of Destiny, should the sequel that is in the works be a complete overhaul and remake of Destiny? Should it have the original story/content with trading and ditch the RNG loot system while keeping the solid gun-play? Or should the sequel be Destiny 2, a continuation where Destiny left off? Perhaps adding a new class or an extra subclass for each? My vote goes with a remake. Since we are still at ground zero for the "Destiny dynasty", I'd rather get our act together, pick ourselves up off the ground and get a solid story in place before adding onto it with sequels. Once the original game is setup with an engaging story-line and tones down the repetition (guard Dinklebot, farm materials, replay strikes) then the sequels should come organically. Those are my thoughts, what do you think?

  • I'm mean sequel yes should be destiny 2.....wait are you talking about the name or the content lol and yeah destiny 2 but with twice as much content as the first game and so on. And of course dlc's with about half a games worth of content every other year if they're making a sequel every other year. Idk -blam!- it lol

      Remake. A few tweaks to a couple of the story missions, and a thorough overhaul of the plot. New script. Build off the old script by making it an alternate timeline, the start of the remake is the strangers ship under attack by the Vex, who then attack the tower, everybody dies, you and ghost get sent back in time by Ikora Rey, to the wall of the cosmodrome, but having the Strangers rifle changes the timeline. Scrap the cutscenes, they all suck aside from the Reef. Use time travel to explain why we can repeat specific missions and events infinitely (and give us a compelling reason to repeat them by linking our degree of success to the world around us) instead of just pretending that the central mechanic in the game doesn't exist. The ship you have to get is important for a [i]specific reason[/i], it's not just any old ship you could buy in the tower. Who crashed it there? You did. You're going after that archon because he stole the time travel Mcguffin out of the ship, not a jump drive that we could pick up at the tower for fifty bucks and a smile. Add new patrol mechanics, segregating players by story progression and completion, varying levels of story completion should result in varying patrol experiences. Crafting-based equipment, with weapon and armor parts and abilities falling into the rarity tiers instead of whole random weapons. RNG is fine, just give us weapon perks in those random engrams rather than weapons. Let us build our own loot, not wade through oceans of useless randomly generated garbage. Also replace the Speaker with Xur. And tacos. Lots of tacos.

      • Please provide links to specific info where bungie said that this game was going to be 1000 times more than what it is. The story is not as great as halo at the moment but the gameplay and maps are way better than any halo has ever been. Everyone says this was supposed to be a mmo. Bungie never said that. They said this is new, and it is. I think everyone played the beta and got excited, over excited and started shoveling words into bungies mouth.

          The "remake" will probably be a definitive "director's cut" edition with all the expansions, out in perhaps 18 months

        • Needs to be rebooted, but that would take too much time. We're at the mercy of Bungie to try and make changes and improvements on the fly. Hopefully they won't half ass it in the future.
